I want to see if the wheel is already invented for part of this idea I have. I would like to measure distance up to 30 mm but in .18 mm increments. Is there any sensor out there that could measure to this detail?

- Approach 1. using a GP2D120 into a 16 bit ADC

- Approach 2. Make a 850nm LASER diode transmitter and a 850nm receiver circuit.
